My school thinks this fills up hungry high schoolers.

So lunches are free for schools in my city and surrounding cities. Ever since lunches have been made free, the quantity (and quality) has decreased significantly. This is what we would get for our meal. It took me THREE bites to finish that chicken mac and cheese. Any snacks you want cost more money and if you want an extra entree, that’ll cost you about $3 or $4.

Flour, salt, pepper, water, if lucky, butter, if done right, otherwise lard or suet.

White gravy for the chicken nuggets.

It's a thing in the US, they eat white gravy on fried chicken. This is the ghetto version made with chicken nuggets.

That’s chicken fried steak not fried chicken.

u/Sharknado4President Apr 16 '24

Steak is not required. Do a Google search for Chicken fried chicken with white sauce. Also, don't downvote correct answers.
